Metamorphosis
Director: Sally Manning
Year: 2008
Metamorphosis is a film that has evolved from trying to explore the subconscious level of the mind and deliberately not having a story plan but going along with a loose hunch. The resulting images that are hand-drawn metamorphose from 'humans' to 'owls and pussycats' and back again.
No Women No Children
Director: Akporé Uzoh
Year: 2025
The aftermath of a sexual assault (rape). Exploring the deep-felt consequences for all involved. At its heart an epic story of a couple's fight for the survival of their love.
Burnt Toast
Director: Helen Anna Flanagan
Year: 2025
Burnt Toast is a contemporary ghost story that resurrects legendary British comedian Tommy Cooper, who famously died mid-performance in 1984. Blending machine learning, VHS footage, archival materials, and a trained impersonator, the film follows Phil, an unemployed magician trapped in the decaying home of the director’s late schizophrenic uncle. Phil’s hallucinatory act navigates the alienation of late capitalism, touching on social class, identity, mental health, and delusion—all punctuated by his trademark jokes and failed magic tricks.
